Summer Reading
I need some...
I need some good books for summer reading. I don't want to spend hours in the library looking for books this year. I've read a lot of books this past year. Especially the popular series. I usually dom't like popular series, but whatever.

The Lunar Chronicles are awesome! She's still writing them. Winter is coming out in 2015. You should definitely read them.

I'm doing a book club with my friends this summer. So far I really like like the books we've chosen. Some of them are: Chomp, William S. And the Great Escape, Everything on a Waffle, My 100 adventures, and The Outcasts by John Flanagan.

I would recommend a series by E.D Baker. The first book in the series is called The Frog Princess, also The Wrinkle in Time series, The Search for Wondla, and 7 Wonders.

The Enchanted Castle by E. Nesbit ( I think)
This is a great fantasy book! Though the castle isn't supposed to be enchanted, in fact, it isn't a castle at all!

Read anything by Alan Snow or Road Dahl, and if you haven't already, read Alice's Adventures in Wonderland by Lewis Carrol and A Wrinkle in Time by Madeline L'Engle. The first three are super funny and the last one is beautiful. Also, WORMHOLES! :D
"But I thought they were in the well!" Alice said to the Dormouse, not choosing to notice this last remark.
"Of course they were," said the Dormouse, "--well in."

anything by Wendy Mass (especially 11 birthdays and finally, and the whole Willow Falls series)
A Little Princess by Francis Hodgson Burnett
